Title: Pump wet end replacement procedure complete with an impeller fixing mechanism
Inventor: ABARCA MELO RICARDO
IPC: F04D7/02
Filed: 2006-12-19
Abstract: The pump comprises: one base, wet end and a rotating impeller connected to the drive shaft. The wet end has a casing formed by two bolted halves with faces or surfaces, inside the casing is the impeller screwed to the drive shaft. Wet end liner and impeller replacement is normally carried out by changing the complete pump or by dismantling the pump wet end in situ and removing the wet end liners and impeller component by component. To avoid vibration and prevent damage to the pump a precise re-alignment of the impeller and the drive shaft is necessary. Such a procedure during wet end liner and impeller replacement takes in excess of 8 hours. This long period of time is the technical problem that is resolved by the present invention which incorporates an impeller fixing device that allows removal of the pump wet end without disengaging the drive shaft from the coupling; therefore it does not require shaft re-alignment or wet end dismantling in situ. The impeller fixing mechanism is comprised of two elements concentric with the pump drive shaft, abutted against the casing faces. The elements are split-annular shaped, with a flexible elastomeric member and a stiff backing ring member where the clamping bolts fasten the mounting faces together. In addition, the backing ring member incorporates the mechanism for loosening the mounting bolts and nuts.

Abstract: Analogs of ShK toxin and methods for using such ShK analogs. The ShK analogs generally comprise ShK toxin attached to a chemical entity (e.g. an atom, molecule, group, residue, compound, moiety, etc.) that has an anionic charge.  In some embodiments the chemical entity attached to the ShK toxin may comprise an amino acid residue. The ShK analogs may be administered to human or non-human animal subjects to cause inhibition of potassium channels or to otherwise treat diseases or disorders. In some embodiments, the chemical entity to which the ShK toxin is attached may be chosen to provide selective inhibition of certain potassium channels (e.g., Kv1.3 channels) over other potassium channels (e.g., Kv1.1 channels). In come embodiments, the chemical entity to which the ShK toxin is attached may include a fluorophore, thereby providing a fluorophore tagged ShK analog. Such fluorophore tagged ShK analogs may be used in flow cytometry alone, or in conjunction with class II tetramers that can detect autoreactive cells.

IPC: B23Q11/10
Filed: 2007-10-29
Abstract: An oil mist collection system for a plurality of machine tools each having a coolant system directing coolant at the cutting tools and collecting coolant and returning the same to a filtration system includes an oil mist collector at each station collecting oil from mist present at each station and draining the oil back to the associated machine tool coolant return, and return air ducts from each of the oil mist collectors extending to a central air filtration apparatus. Each oil mist collector preferably includes a vertical spiral coil wall defining a spiral flow path into which the mist is directed, the oil droplets collecting onto the spiral coil wall and draining into a collection chamber below the spiral coil wall for return to the associated machine tool via a drain line. Each mist collector is comprised of an inlet housing, a spiral coil housing and a collection housing forming a unitary housing assembly. A drain valve prevents drawing air back through the drain line by only opening periodically just sufficiently to partially discharge accumulated oil and any solid debris with only minimal return air entering through the drain. A  cyclonic air flow is induced in the collection chamber to prevent setting and accumulation of solids and drains out through a tangentially facing drain fitting in the bottom outer region of the collection chamber.
